Jiang Youzhi lowered his head and kissed her briefly, "Let’s not talk about that anymore. Worrying won’t help us. We might as well do sothing aningful."
Cai Ping and Hui Xiang hurriedly left and closed the door behind them.
The next day, Gu Yunjiao’s carriage was still so distance from Renxin Hall. Dayan said from the side, "Master, there are guards at the entrance of Renxin Hall. From their attire, they seem to be from Da Jin."
Gu Yunjiao frowned, "People from Da Jin? Are they here to buy dicine?"
Dayan replied, "Master, maybe we should turn back." She was a bit worried, unsure of what the Da Jin people wanted.
Gu Yunjiao suddenly thought of Wanyan Zhang. Could it be him?
With guards, the person must have an unusual status.
And this ti, the people from Da Jin with high status were Wanyan Zhang and the Pri Minister.
Gu Yunjiao pondered for a mont. What’s ant to happen can’t be avoided. Since they ca to Renxin Hall, they must have already inquired thoroughly about her. "It’s fine, let’s just go."
With Wanyan Zhang’s current status, he probably wouldn’t do anything sneaky.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of Renxin Hall, and Gu Yunjiao got off the carriage with Lei Xia’s help.
As soon as she entered, she felt a pair of burning eyes watching her.
Wanyan Zhang was sizing up Gu Yunjiao.
Almost two years had passed since they last t, and Gu Yunjiao seed sowhat different from the girl in his mory.
She had grown taller, her figure more slender, her skin fairer, and her brows and eyes exuded an indescribable charm.
Wanyan Zhang raised an eyebrow and saluted, "Doctor Gu."
Gu Yunjiao politely returned the gesture, "Mr. Wanyan."
She smiled and said, "Is the young master here to buy dicine at Renxin Hall?"
Wanyan Zhang nodded. He had bought a lot of White dicine and injury oil, but his main purpose was still to persuade Gu Yunjiao, "As I ntioned to Doctor Gu last ti, I hope Doctor Gu can accompany on a trip to Huining. How have you considered it?"
Gu Yunjiao had expected Wanyan Zhang to bring this up. She smiled, "Mr. Wanyan, I am now a married woman and cannot leave ho at will. I hope the young master understands."
Wanyan Zhang said calmly, "Is that the only reason?"
Gu Yunjiao detected sothing off in his tone. Thinking of his status, with Great Chu currently in need of him, she added, "Also, I have no desire to leave my hotown and go sowhere so far away. I hope the young master understands."
"If you trust , young master, you can carefully tell about your mother’s illness, and I will consider a prescription. What do you think? It would be even better if there were a pulse case."
Wanyan Zhang’s eyes lingered on Gu Yunjiao’s face for a mont, "Let’s talk about it later. I still have a few days left in Great Chu." With that, he strode out.
The guards at the entrance also left with him.
That afternoon, after returning ho, Gu Yunjiao didn’t ntion this matter to Jiang Youzhi to keep him from worrying.
The next day was the final negotiation between Jin Country and Great Chu. Da Jin clung tightly to their conditions and wouldn’t budge. In the end, even Grand Secretary Mr. Zhou, after consulting the emperor, signed the treaty.
After the treaty was signed, each party held a copy.
Mr. Zhou cupped his hands and said, "The emperor has prepared a palace banquet and invites the second prince and the Pri Minister to honor us with their presence."
This was a ceremonial exchange between the two countries. Wanyan Zhang and Wulinda Hai did not decline and went with the officials of Great Chu to the Jiyin Hall, where the emperor hosted the banquet.
In the great hall, tables were already set, with the emperor and empress seated at the top.
Wanyan Zhang was led to sit in front of the first table to the left of the emperor, opposite all the officials of Great Chu.
Palace maids successively presented dishes, court musicians played in a corner of the hall, and court female entertainers perford dances in the center of the hall.
Wanyan Zhang seed sowhat distracted. The state affairs were concluded, but his personal matters were still unsettled.
